Fgf14^−/− male mice show normal sociability, locomotor activity, exploratory behavior and time in center. (a) In the three chambers test both wild type and Fgf14^−/− mice show a preference for a stranger mouse relative to an object (an empty wire cup identical to the one used to restrict the stranger mouse). (b) (left) In a novel open arena the locomotor activity related to the exploratory behavior and (right) the time in center are indistinguishable in Fgf14^−/− relative to wild type mice. The bars represent mean ± SEM. ** p < 0.01.
